What customers say

A friendly, peaceful, back-to-basics farm campsite with great value, beautiful rural views. Welcoming, helpful hosts. Solar showers, flush toilets. Rustic but appreciated for its quiet, eco-friendly vibe. Great for a no-frills getaway. Entrance potholes addressed.

Farm View primitive grass travel trailer campsite

Liked The view, the peace, the relaxed feel of the place were all super.
It is exactly what I was looking for, back to basics, great value for money stop off with my dogs.
We had a lovely time.
I was shown around by (Garry?) Who was great! Really welcoming and helpful.

It's a working farm so don't expect a sterile environment.

I had great mobile signal.

Farm View primitive grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Stopped for one night to head to the Saunton early in the morning. Great location just outside of Barnstaple.
Host was easily contactable.
This camping is on a working farm so no would say no frills but good value for money in the season and has everything you need.

Taw View powered grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Lovely rural location, quiet and well placed for Barnstaple etc. Great dog walking field. Convenient garage store close by. Nice to see solar heating in shower.

Disliked Single shower/toilet room a bit rough, could do with some tiling maybe and brighter lighting. Field slopes but just about ok with wheel chocks. A working farm but still seems some areas could be tidied up a bit.

Local attractions

For coastal days, the nearest beach is Instow, on the Torridge Taw estuary, 20 minutes’ drive away. Alternatively, set off to the north Devon coast for days at Saunton Sands or Westward Ho! (both half an hour’s drive), or Woolacombe (45 minutes). Offshore trips to Lundy Island run from Bideford (25 minutes). How about a hike instead? Both Exmoor (25 minutes) and Dartmoor (40 minutes) national parks are good places to get out for a proper walk. Cyclists may instead choose to take to the Tarka Trail from Barnstaple (15 minutes’ drive, or get there on the train from Umberleigh, a couple of miles away) Less energetic days out nearby might include a wander around Exeter (50 minutes’ drive, or take a train), pottering through the farmers’ market and shops in South Molton (15 minutes), or visits to RHS Garden Rosemoor and Dartington Crystal (both 15 minutes).
